Hey everyone!

So, you were able to tolerate Souji's random rant. Nicely done. This one... is gay, I'll admit.

THAT'S BECAUSE I LOVE YOSUKE'S HOMONESS.

I think I spend all day, daydreaming about Souji and Yosuke having man-fun in alleyways

...

...

...

Kidding. Haha... ha... haaaa... -_-"

Alright, alright, I get it.

One more thing...

I DO NOT OWN PERSONA 4, ATLUS OR ANY OF ITS PROPERTIES!

Okay, done. :D


A Random Rant: Yosuke Hanamura


"What the hell? I mean, seriously, why?" Yosuke shouted.

Souji and Chie stopped talking and laughing. They both stared at Yosuke. He was on the phone to his father, the manager of Junes.

"Why can't they do their own shift? It's not mine, so I shouldn't be the one to do it!" Yosuke yelled, waving his hands around.

Souji sighed and Chie just shook her head slowly. They were getting used to Yosuke's arguments with his father over shifts at Junes. He was the Prince of Junes after all, or very few people call him Captain Resentment.

"Yeah, well if you need me to do my own shifts, I'll do it. Find someone else to cover for them, because I'm sick and tired of doing this, day after day! Good luck, cos I'm done." Yosuke put the phone down on his dad and sighed heavily.

"Dammit, why can't he respect the fact that I have my own life." Yosuke muttered to himself.

"Because he's the manager and you're his son?" Chie suggested stupidly. Yosuke glared at the girl, the look almost physically hurting.

"Don't worry about it too much Yosuke. If you do, you'll get frown lines." Souji said. Yosuke sniggered at the comment.

"Aren't I supposed to be the gay one?" Yosuke looked at Souji. The silver haired boy shrugged.

"Anyway, another annoying thing is that, everywhere I go, people stare at me and whisper. I know it's bad stuff cos most people stay well away from me, like I have herpes or something." Yosuke frowned.

Souji and Chie looked at each other and moved away from Yosuke slowly. The brunette sighed at his friends quietly.

"I don't have herpes. It was an example."

The other two friends laughed nervously, but didn't move to their original places.

"Plus, those two don't even work most days, yet they still have their jobs. How is Dad completely blind to that? He's such a pain." Yosuke grumbled.

"You sound like a complaining old man." Chie laughed.

"Yeah, well I have a right to. The first person that ever befriended me was Saki-senpai and she's dead now, isn't she?" Yosuke spat.

"To add to that, Susano-O hasn't levelled up that much, so I'm screwed if we have any more battles." Yosuke gave Souji a quick side glance as if to say, You haven't been adding me to your party, so I'm at Level Fail. Souji gulped.

"And now, Junes. That's the biggest pain of all. Junes, Junes, Junes. It rings in my head all day, the theme song of Junes. It gets on my last nerve, dammit! Why won't it stop?" Yosuke gave up at trying to be normal long ago. He accepted that he might as well live up to the Prince of Junes title.

"I'm fed up of life." Yosuke was tearing up slightly.

"It'll get better. Believe me, my life did." Souji said brightly.

Yosuke tucked his knees under his chin and buried his face into his legs sadly.

"Yeah, because your life's perfect, isn't it? You have so many friends that you don't know what to do with them. You have so many admirers that your shoebox is bursting. Your life's perfect. You're perfect." Yosuke muttered into his legs.

Souji widened his eyes a little, but smiled a tiny bit. He's perfect? Yosuke thought that about him? He was far off of perfect.

"I'm not perfect Yosuke, I'm anything bu-"

"Shut up! Stop trying to be heroic! Just accept it." Yosuke interrupted angrily.

Souji stopped talking and turned to look at Chie. She wasn't sat next to him, like he thought she was. She wasn't sat next to Yosuke either. She wasn't even there. Where was she? It wasn't like her to just wander off without a word.

"I hate you Souji. I... I hate you so much. Stop being so... so damn perfect. Stop showing me up." Yosuke felt tears fall down his face, one by one. Soon, the small tears, became big tears that couldn't be controlled.

Souji couldn't see Yosuke's teary face, but he could hear the wobble in Yosuke's voice. His happy and careless self was gone, leaving a defenceless and upset man in its place. Souji put a hand on Yosuke's back comfortingly. Souji could hear soft sobs coming from the brunette. He then heard a couple of small gasps, he must've been trying to breathe in through his mouth.

"I don't want to be Souji anymore." Souji said quietly.

Yosuke looked up at his best friend, confused and still upset.

"W-What?"

"I don't want to be Souji anymore."

"What do you mean? You're Souji Seta, you were born with that name, you'll die with that name."

"I'm Souji Seta, right? You said that I'm perfect. You got upset when you said it. If being a perfect Souji Seta means that you end up in tears, then I'd rather be someone else." Souji looked Yosuke in the eye.

Yosuke began to sob softly again, not hiding his face from Souji this time. Souji hugged Yosuke tightly and could feel tears in his own eyes. Seeing Yosuke cry, made him cry.

"I don't want you to cry Yosuke. I never want you to feel upset." Souji said into Yosuke's ear. That only made Yosuke cry harder.

"I don't want to be me. I want to be you, I want the attention you get. I want the popularity you have." Yosuke cried.

Souji sighed softly. If anyone knew about his secret, then Yosuke would definitely take back his word. He'd do it without another thought and he wouldn't undo it.

Souji began to take his arms away from around Yosuke, but Yosuke clung on to him.

"Souji, don't let me go. Please." Yosuke whispered.

Souji was a little stunned, but he understood. He'd be the same in Yosuke's position. He put his arms back around Yosuke and held him tightly.

"I love you Souji Seta."

"I love you too Yosuke Hanamura."
